To foster and sustain a culture that practices, values, and rewards teaching and learning as vital forms of scholarship at 快色视频, the Center for Teaching and Learning Enhancement has a mission to:
CTLE officially began on May 3, 2010 with the hiring of Dr. Todd Pourciau as the inaugural Director. The idea of a faculty development center had been proposed by the Faculty Senate and was envisioned to provide service for faculty development as well as oversee the Quality Enhancement Plan (QEP) developed in 2005.
In the fall of 2012, Dr. Steven J. Zani became the Director of the Center for Teaching and Learning Enhancement and Dr. Melissa Hudler accepted the position of Director of the Quality Enhancement Plan: ACES Project. Upon the completion of the initial QEP, the ACES project was enhanced and expanded to become SMART (Support & Mentoring to Advance Research and Teaching), a faculty development project under the direction of Dr. Amy Smith, whose cohort groups receive support not only for innovative and sound teaching practice, but also mentoring and guidance for all aspects of academic life, including research and teaching, evaluation for tenure and promotion, university service, and more.
In Summer 2021, Dr. Ashley Dockens was selected to take the position of Director and Timothy Smith as Assistant Director. Together, they intend to continue and expand upon the efforts began by former directors and looks forward to serving the 快色视频 community.
